Relief for Jackson County "THE Daily News complaint because its constructive pro- gram for the relief of unemployment and economic bet terment of this community is not given as much publicity, as its disregard for the law, defiance of the courts, and constant appeals to mob violence and open sedition. The answer to that if this: There can BE no economic recovery here; there can BE no constructive program realized whether offered by the News or ANT other paper; until the THE NEWS ALONE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR, has been put down, and law and order has been restored once more. It is because the Mail Tribune WANTS relief of unemploy ment in this community, WANTS a constructive program of eco nomio recovery, put in force, at the earliest possible moment, WANTS this community to stop fighting and get together; that the woll-being and welfare of our people all our people may be advanced, that the Mail Tribune is and has been doing everything in its power to put down what renders SUCH A PROGRAM ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. Let peace and sanity be restored in this valley and the Mail Tribune will not only favor, but aggressively support, any program of economic or agricultural rehabilitation, which ap pears to it, practical and wise. Until that is done NOTHING ean be done! Must We Have POURING the past few days visited by well known that we advocate the declaring shed can be avoided, respect for forced, and those threatening behind the bars where they belong. OAN IT BE things in Jackson County have come to such a pass, our courage and manhood have fallen so low, that the citizen of this community oan't THEMSELVES, bring order out of chaos; can't THEMSELVES through their courts and the proper law enforcing agencies, restore law and order, and advertise to the world, that this IS a community, where it is safe for any self-respecting and law-abiding American citizen to live I 1I7E DON'T believe it. We refrjse to believe itl The pres- ent writer has lived in Mcdford for over twenty years, and w believe we know something about it. We know that NORMALLY it is one of the finest, most progressive and en lightened communities in this state, or any other. With praotioally no alien or illiterate element, with a high quality of citizenship which is unsurpassed, we know that UNTIL the News came under its PRESENT management, this district was not only the just pride of its oitizens, but of the entire state. And we KNOW what has destroyed that pride, what has made this community a bye-word up and down the coast, what has destroyed what legitimate business, the worst depression in world history, allows, and so does every fair-minded person who has investigated the situation, AND THAT IS THE CAMPAIGN OF FALSEHOOD, INTIMIDATION, AND SLAN DER, WHICH THIS NEWSPAPER HAS CARRIED ON, DAY IN AND DAY OUT, FOR SO MANY MONTHS. V TTHE people HAVE been deluded, not all of many. Their minds have been poisoned so that some of them came to BELIEVE law and broken down, WHEN IT HADN'T, and tha1. a corrupt and lawless gang was in control when it WASN'V And now because their minds have become so inflamed and their sus picions so aroused whon law and order is actually on the point of being broken down: when a gang and a real GANG threatens to gain control, they FAIL TO SEE IT. But fortunately this element represents a decided minor ity. And because they represent a minority and because we KNOW the rank and file of the people of ihis valley, are sound in mind and heart, know that they believe in law and order, know that they trust Judge Norton, and law enforcement officials under him, and want to uphold them in maintaining law and order that, we urged them the other day, to stand up and be counted. CNCE then a number of good citizens some close personal friends have come to this office and asked: "But what can we do I ISN'T it the job of the grand jury to proteot us from law breakers and scditionists; ISN'T it the job of the police to arrest them; ISN'T it the job of the juries to convict them and the oourt to punish them? What can we do!" Quite true under normal conditions. But present conditions are NOT normal, and for several weeks have not been normal. We live in a democracy. Behind our juries, behind our police, behind our courts, behind everything in government, STAND THE PEOPLE. When police engnged in the public performance of their duty are publicly termed "BANDITS," when juries are intimidated are assailed and defied, there is martial law which can save the can save civilization. THAT IS AN AROUSED OPINION. For neither juries, nor police, nor local courts, can defv public opinion, nor can they be opinion. They are not the rulers of the servants, and they do and should do what the people de mand of them. THAT is WHY we asked the people of this community to atAiiri tin in ihim nr. bib nA hm MAimTnrl Tlmt- L.. .. - rt " -" a.i t-viiinvu. a link ib llY C asked them to give their opinions to the grand jury now in session, why we asked them to communicate either by word of mouth or by the written word, with those public officials, in whom they believed, so that the latter might know they had the people a majority of the people, behind them, that they might KNOW what public opinion here actually is, and act accordingly. We are glad to say many followed that advice. We hope many more will.

HYPOSULPHITE FOB Two yetu Ago w quoted her the hypothejn advanced by a physician who had succeeded in curing pnt cue, that Raynaud dUeaee, common ly called "dead finger" or "dead toei," may be caufwd by mild chronic arsenic poUcmlng. Tha case cured ap peared to be of that nature, the woman having worked in green house tnr several years. In green h ouses spray containing arsenic are much used against plant pests. In this particular case analysis showed that an appreciable quantity of arsenic was being ' eliminated through the kidneys. Normally a minute trace of arsenic Is found in the urine. When this exceeds a certain arbitrary max imum It Is fair to assume the pat- lent Is exposed to arsenlo poisoning. The remedy which has proved effic acious In the elimination of arsenic from the body Is hyposulphite ot soda, or as It was formerly called, thlosulphate of soda. It Is given by Injection Into a vein, In the aver age dose of one gram (approximate ly 15 grains) twice a week for two or three months. The sodium hypo sulphite may be taken Internally in the average dose of 10 to 30 grains, in sweetened water or a flav ored syrup, after food, once or twice a day for a period of two weeks. Indeed, this use or hyposulphite In ternally has been recommended as a good remedy for the headache and other after-effects of mild carbon monoxide gas poisoning. The pnysiclan who originally sug gested that Raynaud's affection may be due to chronic arsenic poisoning. Dr. Arthur P. Kraetser, has added to his first case the clinical reports of several other cases of Raynaud's In which marked relief followed the In travenous injection of sodium hypo sulphite as described. Incidentally the treatment brought relief to some other conditions which are often noted In persona suffering with chronic arsenic poisoning, notably obstlnaw eczema and pruritus. If i ?u ar subject to attacks of dead fingers, dead toes, dead ears or what have you, remember, thta is only a possible explanation. . It The Houdini of Textiles Science has perfected something brand new In textiles Last ex an elastic fabric that can be made Into everything from stictchahle socks to suspenders and bathing suits, and which should help Hie Textile . Industry out of the slump of hnrd times. . CHAPTER IV. Then this new lasting elastic tex tile popped up. It was tried out first of aU In corsets, merely because this was Its most obvious use. Immedi ately It made new kinds of corsets possible. The lightest, filmiest, silk iest fabrics could be used fabrics as Adaptable to Individual taste as the chameleon to Its background. They were stretchable both ways, hence stayed in place and gave full scope for athletic activities. They could be washed as often as the wearer pleased without losing their elasticity. In other words, they met a need In a new, unique, sound fashion. What happened? Depression or no depression, an astonishingly large number of women bought the new corsets. Apparently they felt that here was something so worth while they had to have It. An army of new corset users was created among the same athletic misses who by merely turning up their noses prev iously had brought devastation to the corset Industry. I am told that within a single year since It was first tried the new textile has been adopted In 87 per cent of all better-grade corsets. And I am assured that within that year many a big manufacturer has been able to lift himself right out ot the red Inkwell and Jump into the black one. That corset manufacturers were Jubilant over this unexpected salva tion goes without saying. So were the makers and distributors of the new textile. But this was only the beginning for them. There was hosiery. Here the new textile was used first for the tops of stockings and men's socks aa well. CAN BE HEARD BY SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. An Ameri can Legion Initiation which la an annual affair by the Legion Depart ment of California, will be held from 8.00 to 8:30 p. m. February 30, over all the western network of the Nation al Broadcasting Co. Department of ficers will take part and the Califor nia state championship band of Zone Irwin Post of San Francisco, will play. In the paM, letters of congratulation have been received from all parts of the world following this annual broadcast. The broadcast Is a part of the mem bership work of the California De partment. A feature of the member ship effort In California was the " Loyal ty Ma rch" sc h ed u led for th e evening of February 10. Preceding this event the week of February 4 to 11 was designated by the Legion as "Loyalty Week." Instructions for the "March" Included the assembly at a place designated by each pout com mander where the pled.w of nHinnee to the Flag ot tha United State waa DEAD FINGERS I may be correct for only certain cases. Here are some of the symptoms which warrant at least a suspicion of chronic arsenic poisoning, which is generally of occupational origin, but sometimes from accidental contamin ation of food or drink, and some times, from taking .medicine which contains arsenic. Frequent mild coryzas, blepharitis (Inflammation of eyelids), dry sore throat, pruritus and various obstin ate skin eruptions, from eczema to shingles, anemia, pallor, tingling sen sations or actual neuritis, areas of numbness in the extremities, sharp attacks of pain along a nerve, loss of appetite, and obscure disturbances ot the nervous system. Blind Guessing Does a nervous breakdown cause one to have dimness of vision, feel ing of weight on head, poor mem ory, spots . . .? (Mrs. R. H.) Answer I know of no such-, ali ment or condition as "nervous breakdown," neither does any other physician. That Is just a term used to conceal Ignorance. I advise you not to attempt to diagnose your own trouble. Tell your symptoms to your physician, and leave It to him to de termine what causes them. It rajs To He Sure Last spring I wrote to you for In formation on piles, as I thought that was my trouble. What you told me made me go to my doctor. He found the trouble was not piles, but a fis sure. He gave It two simple treat ments and ended the trouble, from which I had suffered a great deal for several years. I owe you this acknowledgement. (R. O. A.) Answer Probably most 'cases of presumptive "piles" are in reality something else and treatment taken on the blind guess can only do harm. Charleyhorse Please explain what Is a "charley horse."? (W, H.) Answer Rupture or tear of muscle cell walls, or a tearing of muscle fiber from its attachment to bone or tendon. It causes a lump which may be felt or even seen, and this takes a month to disappear, leaving a little scar In the muscle which may . Impair the elasticity of the muscle. Such Injuries are most like ly to happen during unaccustomed effort, or when an amateur athlete attempts a severe effort without having first "warmed up" by prelim inary moderate exercise, especially In cold weather. It eliminates In many cases the need for garters, and, what is more, its elasticity outlasts the stockings. And when garters are used the stocking tops are Immune to runs. The next step was to make mesh stockings entirely of the new textile. Every woman knows the sinking feeling that comes when a nice new pair of hose Is ruined by a run the first time they are put on. This stocking, like Calvin Coolldge, sim ply says, quietly but firmly: "I do not choose to run," and that's an end of that. And, curiously enough. Its elasticity Improves with washing, so that the longer It is worn the better It fits. Woolen golf hose for men and women come next. Here also garters are eliminated and with them the need for a turned-down cuff. Surgical hose also are now made of Lastex. Enthusiasts believe the possibili ties for tho new textile In feminine undorwear are very great. A begin ning was made with waist and knee bands for step-ins, or whatever they are called these days. Then elastic lace mesh was Introduced in the form of delicate dainty panels. Fin ally an all-Last ex affair was made that does double duty, r am Inform ed, aa corset and slip. Other gar ments have a full Lastex back and a front of some other textile. Bras sieres of this material combine fllm Iness with firmness. There are various more or less troublesome things about hats. For one thing, the store has to keep a large number of sizes in stock. For another, even If a woman gets the right else, she may wear her hair In such a way that the hat doesn't fit comfortably; it must be broken In to fit her head. (Continued next Sunday) the main part of the program. Fol lowing the pledge, the commander as signed his men to individual squads, each sqund under the command of a corpal. To each corporal was provid ed a list of men eligible for member ship In the Legion and certain names of members who had not yet paid their 1933 dues. The corporal and his squad then proceeded to contact personally th veteran assigned tc them. Instructions provided that nota tions and a report should be made of all veterans found to be out of employment and their families In need. A written report upon each name given the corporal was to be made. At 10:00 p. m., post command ers were to report to their respective district commanders and they In turn to their area commanders and they to the department commander in San Francisco by wire.

Communications Banks Flayed By BiU To the Editor: Aa my challenge to debate the sub ject, "resolved that the reader of th Dally New are suffering from an overdose of political bunk," has gone unanswered, and th political tur moll l growing, I'll change the sub J set and Issue a new challenge to debate the following: Resolved, that the leader of th Good Government Congress are a bunch of political of fice seekers." It seem some citizen with good intention are beginning to take ser iously the political hooey that the leaders of the congress" spread. In order to get the facts to the people before the "congress" goes too far and gets the county overrun with spies. I d like to debate some of these so-called Good Government congress leaders. In this debate I'll seek to show the following: 1 That L. A. Bank and the Dally News are entirely responsible for the re-election of George Codding. 3 That the Mall Tribune 1 en tirely responsible for the election of Earl Fehl. 3 Thatfi. A. Bank and the Daily News, with other publications over the state sold out the dairy Industry Just before the election for a few pal try dollar and made us dairymen compete with coolie labor. (This is why I am a squealer and why I am willing to drive miles to help to edu cate the dairymen aa to hi needs. I can't see what alls Ihe dairymen of Jackson county. Most of them will not spend one penny to come out to a dairy meeting or take any interest in trying to protect their own Indus try, but will drive mile and spend dollar In trying to form a new poli tical party to help some loud-mouth get a political office.) 4 That the natural resources of the state belong to the people and If there is any profit to be derived therefrom It should go back to the people and not to a special privilege class. 8 That h. A. Banks and the Dally New belong In the special privilege class because they are getting away with thing with the power company that we little fellows would be shut of Immediately for. 6 That L. A. Bank endorsed about seven of the mythical "gang" before the primary but was harping about the "gang" long before th primary and ever since. That he ha kicked them all In the seat of the pant ex cept one and this one's turn Is com ing 'next. 7 That L. A. Banks wrote an open 'letter of apology and no one knows how many secret apologies he has made. 8 That L. A. Banks i only a poli tician, and office seeker and a dan gerous man for the public to follow. I will be glad to speak in any com munity that want to be fair and in form Itself on both sides. X am a farmer and dairyman, myself and I want to warn my fellow farmers against coolie labor and other evils that would come from following Mr. Banks. W. N. CARL. (Parmer Bill from Applegate ) Answers C J. Conner To the Editor: Z read in your paper a communica tion of Mr. C. J. Conner, Star Route, Box 80, and I respectfully requested, personally, permission to answer this communication through your col umns. I appreciate your granting my request. Mr. C. J. Conner, Star Route, Box 85, Ashland. ; Dear Sir: Aa you asked me to an swer some questions that you placed In your communication in th pa per, I will endeavor to do so in my simple way. Question 1. Ye, I know there are two law of the land one was given by the people of- Vie United States, the other was God's law which Is spiritual. Question 3. A great many times I have thought and resolved and af firmed within my own mind to live a law abiding citizen. I should af firm the first law. Second, I have also affirmed that I should obey the spiritual law but I am ashamed to say I have not. Question S. I believe I do know right from wrong. Question 4. must confess that I am not awrc of corrupt law for I have z,o master mind. Question 5. Do you mean the writ ten laws by man or do you mean the spiritual laws written and inspired by the writings of God? Question 6. If the people were guided by a sense of right they would not have tolerated the sedi tious and Inciting and inflammatory remarks which were made in the "Good Government Congress" meet ings. In those meetings with the flag ot stars and stripes stretched across th room when I heard those remarks It made me blu&h. I am not attacking any good gov ernment movement, but I am saying to tnose wno made those remarks that they were Insulting the Intelli gence of our people and our flag. I would rather have seen the old flag dragged through your room than hear some fermented brains of Ignor ance make the remarks and Insult the flag that X honor. Question 7. I want to admit that I am not possessed with enough In telligence to be a lawmaker, further more I do not question th law that are made by man. I cannot question the spiritual law that were written. Inspired by the hand of God. Question 8. I do not question the measure that were placed upon the ballot of the election November 8, 1033. I would like to remark that I voted as Intelligently as I could. I did not remain away from the poll and not cast my vote of my honest convictions. To prolong this answer to your question and a you paraphrase "not just the city of Medford." I am no judge and, as the scripture states. "Judge not for fear Vist y shall be Judged." For that reason I will not question the Intelligence of Medford to say whether they knew they were voting right or wrong. I will say that if all of the people would try and dictate what should become a law there are some who have not enough Interest to go to the polls and vote. We hav to leave It to the brain of our countrymen to max our Jaws and have moral cour- I age enough to make the Ignorant abide by them. Yes, I made the remark that law j and order had broken down in Jack-' on county because ot the Insult which were thrown at my flag by ignorance. I have checked this situ ation. I went before the grand jury diy you? I went before your hon orable county Judge and county oourt of Jackson county. In another ar ticle that I wrote In the MaU Trib une you will read what I think of your county Judge. I don't want to repeat what naa already been said, but I will add to the controversy with his action questioning tbe laws of this state, I have nothing but contempt for him. I covered the ground of what I thought was right and what I thought was wrong. I am not like L. A. Banks and Earl H. FeJl to come before the pub Uo with personal grievances to cor rect any wrong that anyone has placed upon them. I will further state and repeat I care not person sonally tor any official or hi personal grievances, but when I listen to remarks made oy your county Judge, Earl H. Fehl, that he "does not give a damn for the laws, he 1 going to take It to the people," the people made these law. I he going to continue to make an effort to Inflame the minds of this public wltrh bis personal grievance? You advise me to go and read oth er law beside the syndicalism law. If you are an Interested citizen and know of any law that Is being broken, get your witnesses, go before the grand Jury, and if you have a clear case and that grand Jury does not Indict the lawbreaker, then they have violated their oath by not returning an Indictment. Now you say get down to judge Fehl. I don't want to take the time and space to go further and repeat what I have said about your county Judge, but I made it clear In my other article that I am not seek ing for my Ideas to work. I am seek ing for the protection of our laws of this country. Don't make an effort and throw mud upon the escutcheon of tbe good people of Medford that they are all moral cowards and cannot take care ot themselves. I dare say that the grand Jury has been muddled up by a lot of hooey and they are at sea to know what to do. Question 0. Yes, I believe a man ha a right to sit In court who has been placed there by law. I do not believe It Is necessary to prolong this controversy In stating to you how law are made the laws that protect your home and property. You mention those Inalienable right guaranteed by the Declaration of Independence. I will state that brains made the Declaration ot Inde pendence and put It Into action and I am too simple minded myself to question their Integrity. You suggest that I read the Ten Commandments, which I iiave done; but I am not the Moses to lead some people out of the wilderness of ig norance and Into the land ot Canaan, but I am In hopes that the laws of our country will be a Moses which will lead us out of the wilderness of this tourmoll and place us before the eyes of the public that we are not trying to overthrow this government. You state should we be governed by the will of our people. Study up how this form of government is es tablished by the people and the rep resentative who are - racking their brains today to study out the eco nomic situation of the country and not settle any personal grievances. You ask the question how I atand: I will state that I stand for law and order and that, anyone who makes an effort to stir a community with seditious remarks should bo taken care of by tho people. R. H. BURTON. Answers Mr. Conner TO the Editor: In a communication in last night s Tribune we noticed that the writer, Mr. Conner feels that the Dahack case was never fairly investigated and seems to know who shot Mr. Dahack. It spear to me that If Mr. Conner has a much Information as he lets on he should give It to the present grand Jury which la now in session. We would alio ask Mr. Conner, if Nealon should resign, how we would go about It to fiU his place? Wouldn't the two remaining mem bers of the county court have to ap point a man In his place? And would the new appointment be any more the choice of the people than the present one? Name on File. Medford, Feb. 18. Ephriam W. Wilson of Spokane.

Rubber Jenkins' Comment (Continued from Page One) cent comes from license fees And gasoline tax. License fees In 1930, the - latest year for which figures are avail able, provided 32.6 per cent of all the highway revenue and gasoline taxes 32.8 per cent. The gasoline tax, you see. has be come more Important aa a producer of revenue than the license fee. SO FAR as known, every state In the Union now levies license feee nd gasoline taxes, but all of them don't use the revenue thus rolm exclusively for highway con struction and maintenance. Sixteen of the states are diverting a part of this revenue to other purposes. Schools are the principal benefic iary of the sums diverted from li cense fees and gasoline taxes. One state. Maryland, uses one-fifth of all the money It collecta from motorists In license fees and gasoline taxes for OYSTER PROPAGATION. Maybe they figure In Maryland that since the motorist likes to atop at roadhouaes and eat oysters he ought to pay for propagating them. This writer hopes that in Oregon we shall eiways continue to use ALL the money we collect from motorists In the form of license fees and gaso line taxes for the building and main tenance of highways.
